  • [re: 'harlot] beginning with Isaiah ch. 54 passage above, scripture definitively states Israel is the 'BRIDE'.  'your maker is your husband';  but 'she' played the harlot, rather than giving His law to the world.
  • [re: Prov. 4:17]  Their 'bread' and 'wine' are NOT the Passover 'bread' and 'wine'.
